The Scene III Alternative Hip-Hop Music and Art Festival

When: Sat., Dec. 19, 8 p.m. 2015

It will be a spectacle at Venue 578 when the Scene III draws upon rad artists to create a live interactive community mural to captivate the cheer you can always expect at this massive party. The hip-hop festival features too many acts to name ’em all, but highlights include Phraydoe Peans & Mango Beats, Split Soul and Nosis. Plus there will be spoken word and B-boys and -girls, a vinyl swap meet, T-shirt and merch expo, and rad DJs keeping spirits bumpin’ all night. It’s also a toy drive, so bring something for the kiddies. – Ashley Belanger
